Allenton (formerly Allentown) was named after Isaac Allen who built the first houses there in 1878. One hundred and twenty thousand years ago, during a warmer part of the Ice Age, the whole area was a riverside swamp, and skeletons of a hippopotamus, elephant, brown bear, hyena and bison have been found there. The Allenton hippopotamus was found underneath the ''Crown Hotel'' (established in 1891) and its well-preserved skeleton is displayed at the Derby Museum and Art Gallery. The Allenton house fire occurred on 11 May 2012, which led to the deaths of six children, 5 of them being male, and one of them being a female.
